Summary

As an aspiring writer, the jobs I’ve taken to pay the bills have required obsessive organizational skills, an ability to adapt to fast-paced environments, and an affable interpersonal style that makes supporting both your day-to-day needs and creative goals easy and stress-free. A Strunk & White acolyte, my copywriting and administrative background means my correspondence is friendly, professional, and (pathologically) grammatically correct. I pride myself on keeping a positive attitude under pressure while I support you logistically. I am comfortable with managing complex schedules, coordinating appointments and travel, and assisting in research for upcoming projects. I am proactive, thoughtful, and comfortable with a wide range of tasks, from managing personal errands to assisting with content creation.
